Hello first off thank you but I'm definitely a n00b as well stuck at step #8...

I was able to add another USERNAME, but a little confused by how to enter in this next part

echo 'USERNAME ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL' >> /etc/sudoers

Is this all one line, also, what do you mean by the symbol ' ?

for instance, one line each:

Code:

adduser econcrypto5
echo 'econcrypto5 ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL' >> /etc/sudoers

hmmm not quite sure the problem

bash: /etc/sudoers: Permission denied

Your sudoers file is broken, you most likely didn't execute the right command syntax earlier.

You will have to destroy your droplet and start again.

first time for me and I'm thankful for the guide!
On OSX do i want to run the Digital Oceans console access or do i want to run in terminal?
I have no experience with either.

all you need is Mac OS X's Terminal.app

zip md5 = 59df705900e78c52c989ceb08dc55bb6
Make sure to check the md5 to be the same as the file on maxcoin.co.uk! I mirrored the official file on dropbox in case the official site should be ddosed, but you may check this exact md5 hash to confirm this yourself.

In step 11b, how do I check the md5 value? What do I type?

md5sum maxcoin-cpuminer.zip

Reality is stranger than fiction

@all: To all experienced with droplet mining before. Is it better to use 1 droplet with 8 cores or 4 droplets with 2 cores?

Anyone has measured the difference?

I'm going to have to ask them for a refund in the morning. What a shame.

All you have to do is copy paste. Wink

is this guy come from MaxCoin dev teams? can his maxcoin-cpuminer be trusted? is this official miner from MaxCoinProject dev team or not?

As you can read in my guide I am not affiliated with the MaxCoin dev team. The cpuminer was downloaded directly from the official site, md5 sum 59df705900e78c52c989ceb08dc55bb6 / As stated in the guide you can and should confirm this yourself. Apparently the file has been temporarily removed from the maxcoin site, it was available yesterday for many hours. (https://twitter.com/stacyherbert/statuses/431181082310897665)

In step 12, I type screen and get the following error. What do I do?

Ah, this was the problem.

try this. I am ubuntu. This works fine.

cd maxcoin-cpuminer

made a vid, hope this helps.

(no swap created in the vid but a separate user. If you run a vpn/dedi you might want to disable ssh for that user, and consider if sudo rights a necessary.

EDIT: i recognized the quality is very bad, for some strange reaso youtube is not converting to HD even if the video is HD, i redo it tomorrow eventually…

Hm... I tried with another set of instructions to get a basic scrypt minerd on there and even it has issues with executables:

Any advice on how much ram is needed?

Its a CPU miner, not GPU

Yes I'm aware of that. Is there a good rule of thumb as to how much ram is needed? Does the amount of threads (CPU cores) increase the amount of ram required?

If i will start the miners nearly before the launch, will they syncronize it when the pool are working?

Question about mining efficiency on virtual vs true cores.

Does someone know what is faster for mining, both on a local desktop and on say Digital Ocean service.

Thanks.

This was posted to the irc channel:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/hw8ccu

They said it was maxcoin-cpuminer compiled for Windows. I laughed but then people were saying it was working so I tested it out in a VM and it looks legit. I ran it like this:

minerd.exe --algo=keccak --benchmark

and it was getting about 1100 kh/s on my Windows 7 64 bit VM with 1 virtual cpu.

This is definitely malware. Do not download.
